Where dwells my cruel beloved Hari (cruel is lovingly said as Krishna left Radha forever in Vrindavan & went to Mathura)

De de amaye shajaye de go

Come and dress me in my renunciate robes (appealing to her women friends)

Amar bhushan bhalo laglo na go

I have no use for any fineries, my friends

De de amaye shajaye de go..

Come and dress me (as a yogini)

Gokulochondro…

Ami Mothura nogore, proti ghore ghore, jaibo jogini hoye

I will visit Mathura city, and go from each house to house, as a yogini (looking for Him)

Jodi milaye bidhi, momo guno nidhi

If God unites me with my Love

Bandhibo onchole kori

I will tie Him to the end of my robe

Ami oncholete bendhe anibo

I will bring Him back tied to my robe

Shei choncholo Gobindere

My fleeting Govinda (Krishna)

Oncholete bendhe anibo, Gokulochondro…

I will tie Him and bring him back

Hari bol, Hari bol, Hari bol, Hari bol….

Say the name of Hari (Krishna)
